A very familiar subject yes, but Reheat's sculpture of Alan Shepard is the best that has ever been done.

The painting on the human models is amazing. The Glenn bust and the 1/8th astronaut blows me away! The Glenn bust is pretty small to get that detail on!

The pictures are cool but seeing it for real is amazing. If anyone wants a cool bust, you need to get in line and have Steve create what he does.

Steve, your models and dioramas are stunning pieces of work! How do you get the scale correct and is there a scale converter?

It looks just like mine and here's a warning - you'll end up buying more for Steve to do (I did).

This kit is manufactured by Tom Kladiva of New Ware models and I have nothing to do with the scale or manufacture.
